Strong stuff I always assumed tastes like garbage, which some people loosely associate with alcohol content
Belgian beers will knock your socks off and they taste good at the same time.. its a paradox
I'm not actually super anti-beer, it's just quite expensive here compared to wine (about $3-5 per standard drink, compared to around $1-2)
Depends. If you’re talking about boomers then they’re most likely just talking about slightly stronger watery macro lagers (bud instead of bud light), so not much difference other than marketing. With craft beer snobs, that often means hop bombs like IPA, where they claim that the piney bitterness is an acquired, sophisticated taste of a better product. Which is ironic because that bitterness can covers up a subpar beer. Typically that stuff is a higher ABV than lagers but still short of wine.
A bit of a tangent, but there’s a similar misconception with coffee. A lot of people who think ultra dark roast, burnt bitter coffee = super caffeinated, but in reality it’s the exact opposite.
